The Financial Times is today launching the Business Technology Debates, a series of video debates between the Financial Times and Computer Weekly on topical business and technology issues. Published monthly, the debates are timed to coincide with the FT’s flagship technology report ‘The Connected Business‘ and will carry advertising from technology giant Oracle.

The Business Technology Debates, like The Connected Business, are aimed at C-suite executives who may not have specific technology skills or knowledge, but still want to be aware of the important technology trends, and understand the benefits for their company. Hosted on FT.com at www.ft.com/business-technology-debates, the series will be complemented with further reading on each topic from the FT and Computer Weekly. Each 10-minute debate will be hosted by an FT journalist, and the panel will include a Computer Weekly journalist and an invited guest. Content is syndicated to ComputerWeekly.com.

With daily postings and searchable content of more than 60 editions of the award-winning luxury lifestyle magazine, the FT’s innovative new How To Spend It iPad app offers exciting mobile opportunities for advertisers.

What opportunities does the app offer advertisers?
Advertisers will be able to target How To Spend It’s high net worth global audience by featuring compelling creative within the app. The app offers new mobile possibilities for advertisers, including a brand hub which gives advertisers the chance to showcase their brand and products in detail, increasing engagement.

After a summer break the Financial Times’ A-List returns today and, due to its popularity, the section will now be sponsored by global insurance group Aviva.

Bringing together a network of world renowned leaders, policymakers and commentators, the A-List features a daily opinion piece from one of these opinion makers on FT.com and in all editions of the newspaper. The commentary is then debated by a response from related experts, and Financial Times readers are also able to participate by commenting online.
